Arsenals form is better than forests but that doesn't mean that their form is sound, compared to the previous season I think that they are a little slow now. This game is a tough one and your verdict isn't far from what I had in mind. Nottingham wouldn't want to give up easily so it would be a defensive game on their part which can lead to a draw but the chances of arsenal winning this game is quite high to me
Watch their previous H2H and I must confess, Arsenal do have the upper hand to win Nottingham Forest. Do you know what's going to happen when Mikel Arteta faces the new Nottingham Forest manager, Ange Postecoglou? They're going to shake hands and implement tougher strategies for themselves. There's absolutely no way any side going to lay low and accept defeats without a fight, I think this game is 50/50 following their previous performance of both sides.
Arsenal haven't portray a stunning performance that would revived the hope of their supporters, no doubt that they might be winning games but their performance doesn't appear impressive. Gunners just have to work extremely hard on themselves because winnings comes from the very best team that have mentality of winning.
On the contrary I’ll say they Arsenal have been impressive losing only to Liverpool by a small margin in a toughly contested encounter or battle. this season Liverpool are the most inform and complete team in the Premier League and they’re looking to retain their title. If Arsenal are to win the EPL they have to be better than Liverpool and ensure they stay consistent on their performance. I think they would give Liverpool a run for their money not like last season. It’s gonna be a fiercely contested tournament this season even to the last match day .
